Carrie Underwood
I have started a discussion at Talk:Carrie Underwood#Associated acts. Please join the discussion there.
As for your edit summary of "As Wikipedia states: "Other acts with which this act has collaborated, or on an album, or toured with". So, Keith U., Dolly P. and Rascal F. should be included too" You seem to, maybe on purpose, leave out relevant words that would make them not associated acts. From Template:Infobox musical artist it states: "Other acts with which this act has collaborated on multiple occasions, or on an album, or toured with as a single collaboration act playing together". (Bolding mine to emphasis the words you incorrectly left out of the quote.) Aspects (talk) 00:08, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I'm HMSSolent. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Jennifer Lawrence, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. hmssolent\Let's convene My patrols 05:26, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into List of awards and nominations received by Carrie Underwood. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:52, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Cry Pretty (album)
Discuss your changes per WP:BRD and WP:CONSENSUS. You are being unnecessarily specific. Also, you linked "week" to album-equivalent unit, and this meets the definition of an WP:EASTEREGG link because it's not what users would be expecting to find if they clicked on that link (and they most likely wouldn't anyway, considering basically every English speaker and those beyond know what "week" means, and it's not "album-equivalent unit"). Ss112 14:58, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
@Ss112, Okay, sorry for the linking/pages confusion. However, I am not being "unnecessarily specific" regarding the two different achievements. Billboard stated that Cry Pretty had both the biggest week (which is in units, or "album-equivalent unit", meaning sales and streaming) and sales week (which is just sales). That is two separate situations, as an album can have the biggest sales week, but not the biggest week - or vice versa. Can you see the difference? Cry Pretty achieved both feats. That is why it should be stated on the page, and I hope you agree with that.

November 2022
Hi ChrisBS! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Ludwig Göransson that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. Archer1234 (talk) 03:47, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry. I meant "minor", as in it clearly didn't change the meaning of the article. I only modified the structure of the text, not its meaning. But OK, thanks for the heads up. ChrisBS (talk) 03:51, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- That's what I figured. Your copyedits are much appreciated. – Archer1234 (talk) 03:54, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

Genres at Carrie Underwood

CS1 error on Nicki Minaj
Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Nicki Minaj, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

January 2026
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Nicki Minaj. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. You keep removing sourced content from this article, and with no edit summary. Your edits have been reverted multiple times over time by multiple editors, and you keep making them again. Your editing behavior on this article shows a pattern of tendentious editing. Lapadite (talk) 06:10, 30 January 2026 (UTC)
- Hi ChrisBS, in this comment, Lapadite noted that some of your edits including Special:Diff/1329223762 made substantial changes to the article and should not have been marked as minor edits. Please remember that an edit should only be marked as minor if it "requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute". Thank you. — Newslinger talk 06:57, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to living or recently deceased subjects of biographical content on Wikipedia articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia's norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
— Newslinger talk 07:06, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
- Please be aware that WP:CT/AP (post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people) is also a contentious topic. Thank you. — Newslinger talk 07:06, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
